Think of it as an inverse of “Flip this House”. It’s like “Flip this family’s spending habits”.
Current outgoings: 6500
Current Incomings: 3250
Choice points:
1 – Husband doesn’t work. Views anything less than previous salary of $50K as being “beneath him”
2 – Raid daughters piggy bank for money
3 – Mortgage check is bounced to pay for vacation
4 – Blew through the 85K profit from previous house sale in 6 months (obviously implying a 100% financing on current residence)
7 – Huge ass truck bought to set up a business (which fails, mostly due to husband’s complete lack of knowledge about running a business)
Of course the cherry on top is that they have 4 Direct TV boxes and only 2 tvs.
The lasting impression is their sense of entitlement and sheer disbelief with the way they react to the fact that the money has to come from somewhere….
